This past week, we celebrated Michael's first birthday. I have always heard that your children grow up so quickly, but I never really understood it until now. This past year has flown by so fast! Greg and I marvel when we watch Michael cruising around, playing with his toys, eating on his own; that just last year he couldn't do any of these things.
We have spent much of this past week thinking about when Michael was born. I was so anxious for him to come. My pregnancy went very smooth, so I was a little worried that I wouldn't be so lucky in my delivery. But to my relief, that went really well (thanks to the epidural!). Michael arrived at 6:13 pm, on October 21st. He was screaming before he was fully delivered, letting us know that we were in for an exciting ride!!
And that started our life with Michael and it has been a thrill ever since. Greg and I thank our Heavenly Father every day for sending us such a special little boy. He is such a happy baby. His little spirit just brightens every room. We love you little Michael!! We are so happy that you are part of our family!
Going Home
Many Late Nights!!

I can't believe he is one already! What a sweet little boy. And I love the candid shot of the late nights. You look beautiful even in the dead of night.
You look so beautiful! Seriously, in the hospital, going home and the one that made me stick my tongue out at the screen-late nights?! How do you always look fabulous? I look like a mole at night.
Michael is such a darling little man. I love him so much-I should say WE love him so much. Gavin picked up the picture I have framed of him (relaxing in the hammock) and told me he missed Michael and can't wait until we see him again. I completely agree! I enjoyed the time we spent with you so much. I can't wait until we can all get together again. Lots of love!
What a joy Michael is!!! We are sooo happy he is in our family. Somebody was really looking down on us Oct 21,2007! We are most grateful. Yeah Michael!!
Happy Birthday Michelle. A little late, I guess. It was so good to talk to you at enrichment tonight Ashlee. We really need to do something. Van and Michelle need a play date.
Happy Birthday Michael. I am a little late, but I was blog surfing today and came across yours. I thought I would just drop you a note to tell how cute your family is! Michael is adorable!! I love the pic of him in his santa hat.
